Active clinical trials for "Prosthesis Failure"

The aim of the study is to prospectively evaluate the survival of JJGC Cobalt-Chromium (CoCr) prosthetic abutments in single-unit implant-supported prostheses, to confirm the long-term safety and performance of the devices.

This within patient study will be conducted to compare between two different construction techniques (CAD-CAM Milled and Conventional techniques) of 4-implant-assisted complete mandibular overdenture bases regarding the digital occlusion force balance analysis using the OccluSense

The purpose of this research study is to identify reasons that cause an all-ceramic bridge to fracture which include the thickness of the bridge material, the type of bridge material and the bite force of the person. This all-ceramic bridge will be compared to a metal-ceramic bridge. The investigators are conducting this study so we can make bridges which can withstand forces in the mouth which tend to break them. The overall objective of this research is to analyze how properties of ceramic materials and different forces in the mouth interact with each other to affect the longevity of these bridges. These include fracture toughness, elastic modulus of ceramic layers and supporting substrate, core thickness, connector height, wear, loading orientation, and maximum clenching force.

This is a randomized, single-blind, split-mouth clinical trial to evaluate the performance of peri-implant tissues (bone and soft tissues) in conventionally loaded Galimplant implants, using a classic multi-position, anti-rotational abutment, comparing it to the new multi-abutment aesthetic slim anti-rotational placed both at the time of the implant surgery. To this end, 80 Galimplant implants with a diameter of 4 mm and 10 mm in length will be placed in areas of mature scarred post-extraction bone. Patients be divided into 2 study groups, group C: straight pillar; Group T: Slim pillar. The bone and clinical radiological stability of the peri-implant tissues will be evaluated at 6 weeks post-surgery and at 6-12 months post-prosthetic loading.

To prospectively monitor the survival rate of Ankylos® dental implants, comparing delayed versus immediate loading, using abutments with the SynCone® concept for implant-supported detachable dental prosthesis (ISDDP) in the edentulous upper jaw.

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare peri-implant tissue health, number of complications, and patient's preference between two unsplinted overdenture attachments.

The mechanical intervention is treating aortic valve stenosis (AVS) which may be performed using the standard open surgical approach for aortic valve replacement (AVR) or transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The key question of this study is to establish the difference in all-cause and cause-specific (cardiac vs noncardiac) mortality, all hospitalizations for heart failure within 24 months of follow-up, left ventricular reverse remodeling after adjustment for death, as assessed by means of the left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), in patients who received the TAVI vs the standard surgical procedure for AVS.

The aim of this study will be the evaluation of patient satisfaction and oral health-related-quality of life (OHRQoL) of two versus four implants supporting fixed full-arch screw-retained metal acrylic hybrid mandibular prosthesis.

The uncemented Symax hip stem is developed through optimization of the uncemented Omnifit hip stem. The Symax stem design combines an anatomical anteverted proximal geometry with a straight distal section. The proximal part is coated with a biomimetic hydroxyapatite (HA) coating for improved osseointegration to enhance load transfer and to minimize proximal bone loss. The distal part is treated with an anodization surface treatment in order to prevent distal bone apposition, which is expected to prevent distal loading and reduce proximal stress shielding. Aim of this study is to report mid-term clinical performance and evaluate whether the radiographic features are in line with the design principles of the Symax hip in an international clinical study with 5 years of follow-up.

This study is intended to compare the proximal migration of the tantalum design (TM) with a cemented cup used in conjunction with bone allografting in cases with major bone loss. A group of patients with good periacetabular bone stock are included to analyse the differences between the tantalum and titanium design regarding risk of loosening and differences in clinical outcome measures. Radiostereometry (RSA) is used to accurately measure migration and rotation of the revision cups.
